Need help to reconfigure my system
I agree, Accent covered all the bases for the most part. Sell what can't figure out what to do with. Let up know when you're ready for setup. 
Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel?
Cinematic - I think the main reason why 2channels just don't get MC is that have a tough time grasping the concept to 5 speakers working as one, just as two can work as one. Or am I talking newbie jibberish again?I can guarentee if the MC system w... 
How much does your system retail for?
$800.00 tops, including interconnects...the whole 9 yards. Some guess it to be closer to the $3500 to $4000 range. Best part about it is...its Multichannel, not a HT. 
Isolating the listening chair?
Viridian - I've got two cryo'd mystical glowing chipmunks left. They give off such a warm soothing glow. It'll work wonders for you system...but you gotta make sure they're on isospikes or else your system is ruined. Submurge it in a sandbox....go... 
Taking audio too seriously?
Nuguy - I would be very careful what I say about "hobbyists." They are very touchy. Besides most are busy gawking at thier tubes to really care what works and what doesn't. I'm with Sugerbrie, its all about the music. When you don't have a road ma... 
Pick your poison...2-channel or multi?
If its OK with everyone, please refer back to the question I posted yesterday. It would be interesting to hear everyones views.Thanks 
Pick your poison...2-channel or multi?
Phd - my humble appologies for becoming unglued. I'm the result of 3 years of ridicule by other 2ch audiophiles. If I read something that reminds me of what I went through with other, I have a tendency to become a bit abrasive. It was not intended... 
Pick your poison...2-channel or multi?
Maybe this will help a little. --------Question primarily for 2CH'rs-----------Are you aware that the very essense of MC is durived from the same principles of 2CH? Here's the easiest and most practical way I can explain it. Its like getting the s... 
Pick your poison...2-channel or multi?
Dave...you've truly given me a reality check! Some people get it and some don't. Sad to say, but you may be right...I am and audiophile. Just not THAT kind of audiophile. It gets frustrating to hear such mumbo come from people who have many more y... 
Pick your poison...2-channel or multi?
Phd - Thanks for your post but you've accomplished nothing but proving one of many points I've made before. Audiophiles have somehow convinced themselves that Multichannel is a gimmick; only to keep from realizing they have needlessly spent far to... 
Pick your poison...2-channel or multi?
Would anyone else care to post about thier Multichannel experiences or has this thread officially be shut down by the powers that be? The other "not so obvious" point this thread was to hopefully help those who have or are at least are willing to ... 
HT / Audio system Recommendations under 15K.
I've recently heard a 6.1 home theater using the B&K Ref50 and the Blue Sky System 1's. Gotta say its better than everything I've heard before...and it won't come close to maxing your 15K budget. Reach out to D_Edwards, tell him I sent you. If... 
Recommendation for small satellite speakers
Depending on your overall budget, I would recommend the Blue Sky Media desk or Pro Desk. I haven't come across anything better. www.abluesky.com 
Pick your poison...2-channel or multi?
Phil,As I mentioned it has been fun and I have been learning a great deal from you but I must inform you that much of what I say from a technical standpoint is being confirmed by someone with a great deal more experience than I. As you ramble on m... 
Pick your poison...2-channel or multi?
Phil...you've talking yourself in to a circle of a wurlwind for long enough. You've made...tried to make your point. Thanks for the effort, but I think its time to move on. There are more mystical chipmunks waiting in line to post. ;)So Kal...when...
